이번 연구의 목적은 기존의 페이스 마스크와 변형된 페이스 마스크의 치아 및 골격적 효과를 평가하고자 III급 부정교합환에서 치료군과 비치료군을 비교하였다. 24명의 환자(여자: 13명, 남자: 11)로 구성된 기존의 페이스 마스크 그룹(Group 1, mean age, $9.2{\pm}1.4$ years)과 24명의 환자(여자: 12명, 남자: 12명)로 구성된 변형된 페이스 마스크(Group 2, mean age, $9.3{\pm}1.6$ years); 그리고 21 명(여자: 11 명, 남자: 10명)으로 구성된 대조군 그룹(Group 3, mean age, $9.8{\pm}1.9$ years)으로 분류하였다. 그룹 내 그룹 간에 치료군과 대조군을 통계학적으로 분석하였다. 그룹 내 비교는 비모수적인 방법의 Wilcoxon's test으로 그룹 간의 변화는 Kruskal-Wallis test를 이용하여 분석하였다. 이후 그룹 간의 통계적인 유효성 검증을 위하여 Mann-Whitney test와 Bonferroni's correction 을 시행하였다 (p < 0.016). Group 1에서 SNB 변화가 대조군보다 적었다. SNA, ANB, SN-MP, A to N perp과 Upper lip to E plane이 증가하였다. Group 2에서는 SNB, U1-NA (mm) U1-NA ($^{\circ}$) and Pog to N perp (mm) 변화는 대조군보다 적었다. SNA, ANB, SN-MP, A to N perp과 Upper lip to E plane이 증가하였다. 변형된 페이스 마스크는 상악 열성장이 있는 III급 부정교합 환자에게 효과적으로 사용될 수 있다. 상악궁 확장을 동반한 페이스 마스크를 통하여 상악은 회전을 야기시키지 않고 전방으로 이동하였으며 모든 치료군에서 하악은 후하방으로 이동하였다.

Objective: To evaluate the effects of facemask therapy, which was anchored from the zygomatic buttresses of the maxilla by using two miniplates, in skeletal Class III patients with maxillary deficiency. Methods: Eighteen skeletal Class III patients (10 girls and 8 boys; mean age, $11.4{\pm}1.28$ years) with maxillary deficiency were treated using miniplate-anchored facemasks, and their outcomes were compared with those of a Class III control group (9 girls and 9 boys; mean age, $10.6{\pm}1.12$ years). Two I-shaped miniplates were placed on the right and left zygomatic buttresses of the maxilla, and a facemask was applied with a 400 g force per side. Intragroup comparisons were made using the Wilcoxon test, and intergroup comparisons were made using the Mann-Whitney U-test (p < 0.05). Results: In the treatment group, the maxilla moved 3.3 mm forward, the mandible showed posterior rotation by $1.5^{\circ}$, and the lower incisors were retroclined after treatment. These results were significantly different from those in the control group (p < 0.05). No significant anterior rotation of the palatal plane was observed after treatment. Moreover, changes in the sagittal positions of the maxillary incisors and molars were similar between the treatment and control groups. Conclusions: Skeletally anchored facemask therapy is an effective method for correcting Class III malocclusions, which also minimizes the undesired dental side effects of conventional methods in the maxilla.

III급 부정교합은 서양인에서 약 5%의 발생빈도를 보이며, 일본인과 한국인에서 교정환자중 50%정도로 증가하는 추세이다. 이런 III급 부정교합자의 63%가량이 상악골의 열성장 또는 상악골의 열성장과 하악골의 과성장에 의한 것이라고 알려져 있다. 일반적으로 환자의 나이가 많을수록 악정형력보다는 치열에서의 변화량이 크므로 치료는 조기에 시행하는 것이 바람직하다고 하였다. 조기치료시 성장조절, 환자의 협조도, 치료의 관리와 같은 결정요소들을 잘 판단하여 시행함으로써 상악골의 더 많은 전방이동이 가능하며 정상 성장을 도모하고 교합관계가 증진되며 안모의 개선으로 인해 정상적인 사회 심리적 발육이 이루어질 수 있다. 본 증례는 반대교합을 주소로 원광의료원 치과병원 소아치과에 내원한 유치열기 환아에게 facemask를 이용한 조기 치료로 양호한 결과를 얻었기에 보고하는 바이다.

The Class III malocclusion classified in two types of Skeletal Class III and Pseudo Class III. In the case of the maxillary deficiency, the protraction H-G(facemask) with Bonded RPE can be used. For children with A-P and vertical maxillary deficiency, the preferred treatment is to move the maxilla into a more anterior and inferior position, which also increases its size as bone is added at the posterior and superior sutures. Successful forward repositioning of the maxilla can be accomplished before age 8. To resist tooth movement as much as possible, the maxillary teeth should be splinted together as a single unit. The maxillary appliance must have hooks for attachment to the facemask that are located in the canine-primary molar area above the occlusal plane. The facemask usually worn until a positive overjet of 2-5mm is achieved interincisally. Occipital chin cup is successful in those patients who can bring their incisors close to an edge-to-edge position when in centric relation. This treatment is particularly useful in patients who begin treatment with a short lower anterior facial height, as this type of treatment can lead to an increase in lower anterior facial height. If the pull of the chin cup is directed below the condyle, the force of the appliance may lead to a downward and backward rotation of the mandible.

Objective: The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate and compare the changes in the pharyngeal airway (PA), maxillary sinus volume, and skeletal parameters after rapid maxillary expansion (RME) and alternate rapid maxillary expansion and constriction (Alt-RAMEC) followed by facemask (FM) therapy. Methods: The records of 40 patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion due to maxillary retrognathism were collected, and the patients were assigned into two groups. The first group comprised 8 male and 12 female patients (mean age, $10.0{\pm}1.1years$) treated using RME/FM for an average of 10 months. The second group comprised 10 male and 10 female patients (mean age, $9.64{\pm}1.3years$) treated using Alt-RAMEC/FM for an average of 12 months. Cone-beam computed tomography images acquired before (T0) and after treatment (T1) were evaluated. Results: Regarding the skeletal effects, significant differences between the groups were the increase in ANS-HRP (perpendicular distance of ANS to the horizontal reference plane, 0.99 mm, p <0.05) in the Alt-RAMEC/FM group and the decrease in PP-SN (palatal plane to Sella-Nasion plane, $0.93^{\circ}$, p < 0.05) in the RME/FM group. Maxillary sinus volumes increased significantly in both the groups, and the increase was statistically significantly higher in the Alt-RAMEC/FM group. Although no significant intergroup differences were observed in PA volumes, both lower ($1,011.19mm^3$) and total ($1,601.21mm^3$), PA volume increased significantly in the Alt-RAMEC/FM group. Conclusions: The different expansion devices and protocols used with FM therapy do not seem to affect the forward movement of the maxilla and PA volumes. In contrast, the increase in maxillary sinus volume was greater in the Alt-RAMEC/FM protocol.

Objective: To investigate the cephalometric predictors of the future need for orthognathic surgery in Korean patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) despite long-term use of facemask with miniplate (FMMP). Methods: The sample consisted of 53 UCLP patients treated by a single orthodontist using an identical protocol. Lateral cephalograms were taken before commencement of FMMP therapy (T0; mean age, 10.45 years), after FMMP therapy (T1; mean age, 14.72 years), and at follow-up (T2; mean age, 18.68 years). Twenty-eight cephalometric variables were measured. At T2 stage, the subjects were divided into FMMP-Nonsurgery (n = 33, 62.3%) and FMMP-Surgery (n = 20, 37.7%) groups according to cephalometric criteria (point A-nasion-point B [ANB] < -3°; Wits-appraisal < -5 mm; and Harvold unit difference [HUD] > 34 mm for FMMP-Surgery group). Statistical analyses including discrimination analysis were performed. Results: In FMMP-Surgery group, the forward position of the mandible at T0 stage was maintained throughout the whole stages and Class III relationship worsened with significant growth of the mandibular body and ramus and counterclockwise rotation of the maxilla and mandible at the T1 and T2 stages. Six cephalometric variables at T0 stage including ANB, anteroposterior dysplasia indicator, Wits-appraisal, mandibular body length, HUD, and overjet were selected as effective predictors of the future need for surgical intervention to correct sagittal skeletal discrepancies. Conclusions: Despite long-term use of FMMP therapy, 37.7% of UCLP patients became candidates for orthognathic surgery. Therefore, differential diagnosis is necessary to predict the future need for orthognathic surgery at early age.

This study analyzed the fashionable characteristics of functional fashion mask types. This study reviewed the literature on masks and analyzed fashion photos found in fashion books, fashion collections and on internet fashion sites. The results were categorized into four characteristics. Integration of structure and function showed mask designs that connected to the hood and portable items. It represented the reflection of nomadic life, liberation, obscurity and the consciousness of discomfort. Signs of playfulness showed mask hybrids and animal images, the mask hybrids and humanoid images, the printing of animal characters, body parts and unusual material hybrids. It represented the liberation from a fixed identity, the loss of seriousness, the reduction of tension and the pursuit of pleasure and freedom. The duplicity of aggression and protection showed a futuristic or aggressive helmet facemask, an enclosed mask of intensive color, and the morphological hybrid of a disgusting or aggressive motif. It represented the end of human weakness, the desire of new self-expression and the longing of superhuman power. Fanciful decoration showed masks with glittery decoration, sunglasses with luxury decoration material, a medical facemask made of lace material and fanciful printing. It showed one facet of extreme consumption, the creation of new personality and value, the pursuit of high quality and a mutual coexistence of status and anonymity.

Recently, many studies were reported accurate analysis of facemask effect due to the development of the personal computers and computer programs. The aim of this study is appropriate protraction direction of facemask using finite element study with computer aided design and computer aided measurement. The construction of the three dimensional FEM was based on the computer tomography(CT) scans of 13.5 year-old male subject. Protraction force of 500 mg was applied at 0, 30, 60 and 90 degrees downwards to the Frankfort horizontal plane, and maxillary displacement and stress distribution were measured. When 60 degree force was applied, it showed forward movement of premolar roots area and downward movement of anterior nasomaxillary area, and others showed clockwise rotation movement of the nasomaxillary complex. Finally, we can produce the protraction of maxillary bone without rotation of maxilla about 60 degrees.
